The Greatest of All-Time! Bill Belichick Wins His 6th Championship!

February 4, 2019 - Once again, the New England Patriots lead by Croatian-American Head Coach Bill Belichick have won the Super Bowl! 

This is the Patriots 6th championship in their dynasty, and it was arguably the best-coached game of Bill Belichick’s career. The team took on the Los Angeles Rams, who were the NFL’s #1 ranked defensive team - and they definitely came to play on Sunday. 

The Rams high powered defense would allow only a field goal to the Patriots in the first half. However, the more impressive statistic heading into halftime was that the Patriots allowed 0 points at halftime, which is something that not a lot of media outlets and experts give them credit for often.

This incredible defensive battle continued through the third quarter, but the Rams were able to kick a field goal of their own to make the score 3-3 heading into the fourth quarter. Bill and his team seemed poised heading into the fourth quarter of this defensive battle because their past Super Bowl appearances were decided by 8 points or fewer. Sure enough, in the fourth quarter, the Patriots scored the game’s only touchdown, thanks to a run by running-back Sony Michel. Kicker Stephen Gostkowski hit a field goal to make the final score 13-3. The game’s final score set an NFL record for the lowest scoring Super Bowl game in history but more importantly broke even bigger records. 

Quarterback Tom Brady now has the record for most Super Bowl wins by an NFL player and Bill Belichick extends his record of most Super Bowl wins by a coach. This is arguably the first time that the Patriots have been treated like the underdog almost all season. However, despite all the media noise and doubters, they have found a way to win and use that hate as motivational fuel to get the job done. The job that the Patriots have done in their dynasty is amazing, but it couldn’t have been done without their mastermind Croatian coach always finding a way to win the games that count. The 2019 Croatian dominance in sports is just beginning!
